Abstract
This case describes a 60-year-old man with a history of diabetes and hypertension who underwent a kidney transplant in September 2023. The patient presented with fever, cough for 5 days, empirical antibiotics were started but complaints were not resolved so fungal markers were sent, which showed elevated galactomannan levels, necessitating the initiation of voriconazole therapy. X Ray chest showed patch along with cavitatory lesion which was further confirmed by CT Scan Chest which confirmed a cavitatory lesion. This case report emphasizes the importance of considering fungal infection as a differential diagnosis in immunocompromised patients and achieving good results with appropriate treatment.
